[Paparazzi-devel] Tiny PCBs online...

[David Conger]

>
Hello,

Ok, I will edit the Wiki Page on the Hardware to have my URL. It was  
all quite easy and I am glad people appreciate it. Since I do have a  
day job running out to mail these out during the day (I get them out  
within 24hrs of receiving PayPal notification) I may Pad Slightly  
more to as you say make it worth it.  I just had no idea how many  
would want them. I send them out First Class USPS Mail to save costs  
on shipping. If someone orders more than a couple I'll need to charge  
more for shipping.

Here are the details how I had them made:
1. Make Gerbers
2. Login to: http://myropcb.com
3. Register
4. Fill out Quote
5. Upload Gerber File
6. Pay (I used PayPal)
7. Wait for UPS Global to Deliver :)

It takes 3-days to ship. Shipping charge is flat-rate 35.00 :( ...  
but they get to me in 3-days. Lead time for two layer board can be  
very short, as in a couple days. For 4-layer (Tiny1.3) it's more  
expensive as they charge a mandatory "test" charge and if you ask for  
less than 10 days lead time it's more expensive. So I used 10days for  
the Tiny1.3.

I was at first doing it only for me but when I calculated the cost  
for 1,5,10,20,50 it was extremely cost effective to simply go for the  
larger number as the per unit was quite low compared to the one time  
setup costs.

So, worst case if people need more than I have I can have more made  
in about 1-week.

Now off to edit the Wiki, glad I an contribute in some way to this  
project.

-David
